 SIGN UP!!

Need to get some words in? The Weekend Writing Marathon (WWM) is a writing challenge designed to help you do just that. You set your own writing goal for the weekend and work to achieve it before reporting back to the group on Sunday night.

How do I participate?

1. Reply to this post with your weekend writing plans–be as specific (or not) as you’d like.

2. Start writing on Friday 12:01 am local time. Work to meet your goal by Sunday night at 11:59 pm local time. You can work on whatever you want during this time.

3. Post your accomplishments to the Finish Line post at the end of the weekend (even if you didn’t reach your goal).

How do I report my accomplishments?

A Finish Line post will go up on Sunday. Reblog that post with your final word count/accomplished goal(s) by Monday at midnight local time. Totals from the weekend will be posted on Tuesday.

This challenge is currently running on 3 platforms: tumblr, pillowfort, and dreamwidth. If you sign up on this platform, please respond to the Finish Line post on this platform.

Let us know if you have any questions!

I Shall Rise and You Shall Not by treefrogie84

The Old Guard || background relationships || General || No major warnings apply || 1,666 words || Complete

Summary: It’s been a long week, American politics are bullshit, and while she has her nazi punching permit, she hasn’t figured out how to punch substantial portions of the internet yet. Or even the cops who encourage this bullshit to happen [all cops]. So she wants to retreat to something familiar and queer, there’s no harm in that.
Or at least, there wasn’t, until she remembered she was watching it with three people who saw the original production, and one who would have if she hadn’t, ya know, been drowning in the English Channel at the time.

Other tags: Team Bonding, Movie Night, Dubious Historical Accuracy, OPINIONS on Shakespeare adapations, Shakespeare Quotations, Christopher Marlowe Quotations, Marlowe dies in a bar brawl
